6 Frame Medium Langstroth Nucleus Hive

Identical to the Langstroth nucleus hive but built to take Medium or 3/4 Langstroth, also more widely known in the UK as Dadant Shallow frames (6.25" deep). This size frame is almost identical in brood area (number of cells per frame) as a BS National standard brood frame, so the bees have plenty of room.

A divider is available which splits the nuc into a 3 + 3 configuration, ideal for queen mating.

Please note: our 1.8 kg entrance feeder does not fit these nuc boxes, you must use the 1.0 kg entrance feeder.

Unlike our hives these nuc boxes are not sold with entrance reducers as the ways the nuc box is likely to be used will vary between beekeepers. However, we recommend a pair of entrance reducers is also purchased as they will make the nuc box much easier to use when operated with one colony.

A set of instructions for the nuc box can be downloaded here.
